Tampa Bay Rays vs Los Angeles Angels Prediction
The Angels have some value after winning 4 straight games, but I’m not getting behind Rodriguez and his 8.10 ERA and 1.80 WHIP through 23.1 innings. Legumina has been far more trustworthy with a 3.07 ERA and 1.26 WHIP, but he’s pitched just 29.1 innings. I need a larger sample size to get fully on board. The Angels’ bats are awake, and the Rays are capable of hitting the ball at an above-average clip. I expect some runs in this spot. I’ll lean toward the over.
